The halt is located at the side of the main Douglas to Laxey road which runs parallel along this particular section of the tramway. Nearby is a local housing estate which the stop serves.
This stop doubles up as a bus stop in connection with the island's Bus Vannin services which are operated by the same government department as the tramway. Despite being a little-used rural halt, it was equipped with a modern bus shelter in 2000 with the dual purpose of providing shelter to bus customers also; it is in close proximity to the next official station on the line and sees little use for this reason.
